About Anomalistic Months

The anomalistic month = interval between successive Moon perigees = 27.5546 days = 2,380,713.2 s. Slightly longer than the sidereal month because the Moon's perigee precesses, completing one revolution in ~8.85 years. Governs 'supermoons': a full moon at perigee appears ~14% wider and 30% brighter. Tidal forces at perigee are ~30% stronger than at apogee. 1 anom.mo = 27.5546 d.

About Gregorian Years

The Gregorian year = exactly 365.2425 days = 31,556,952 s (mean over the 400-year cycle with 97 leap years). The Julian calendar (45 BCE) used 365.25 days; Gregorian reform (1582) dropped 10 days and amended the centennial rule. Britain adopted it in 1752; Greece in 1923. Carbon-14 dates are reported in 'years BP' (before 1950 CE). 1 yr = 365.2425 d = 8,765.82 h = 31,556,952 s.
